According to legend, the name Umlazi comes from "umlaza" (Zulu for the sour acid produced from fermented milk or sour milk). It is believed that when Shaka was passing through the area, he refused to drink from a local river claiming it had the taste of "umlaza", from that incident, the area has infamously been called Umlazi.
